You didnt create your own luck,you created your own skill.
Why do you think 98% of gamblers lose year in.Do you think they all had bad luck.I cant believe this is even an arguement.It shows me how sharp a group we have here.
Steak Tartar has been around,hes old school,hes got good common sense.
Anyone who disagrees with him or me,is part of the 98%.The 98%,that lose year in year out.
I cant believe you think 90% is luck.UNBELIEVABLE.
My accomplishments were not luck at all. I used my own resourcefulness and turned the tables on the house. I can attribute my success to being ruthless.
I am mainly talking about others. Winning gamblers here who are not ruthless and/or excellent line shoppers would have to have a good bit of luck to come out ahead. You cannot overcome 10 and 20 cent lines by just being great (lucky) at picking games. You need information, a good sense of public perception, and an assortment of well funded accounts.
So let me put it this way, If you are lucky then you don't have to be good to win but if you are good, you still need a bit of luck to win. Having the best lines consistently will most likely win in the long run, but you still need to be somewhere near expectation. If you are picking winners at a rate 2 standard deviations below the average then you will not be a winner no matter how resourceful and talented you are. And conversely, if you are picking winners 2 standard deviations above the norm then you are winning even if you are getting the worst lines consistently.
